# Backup & Restore

This go module is a command line tool to back up and restore the configuration and the Terraform state.

It has two subcommands `backup` and `restore`.

## `restore`

The main usage of the `restore` subcommand is to import an "outside" Terraform instance (maybe created by the terraform command line or managed by another terraform-controller before) to the terraform-controller in the target Kubernetes without recreating the cloud resources.

To use the `restore` subcommand, you should:

1. Prepare the `configuration.yaml` file and the `state.json` file whose content is the state json of the Terraform instance which would be imported.

2. Confirm that the environment variables set in terraform-controller are also set in the current execution environment.

3. Run the `restore` command: `go run main.go restore --configuration <path/to/your/configuration.yaml> --state <path/to/your/state.json>`

To find more usages of the `restore` subcommand, please run `go run main.go restore -h` for help.

### Example

You can find the example in the directory [examples/oss](examples/oss).

Assume that we have created an oss bucket named `restore-example` by applying the `main.tf` using the Terraform command line tool.

```hcl
provider "alicloud" {
alias = "bj-prod"
region = "cn-beijing"
}
resource "alicloud_oss_bucket" "bucket-acl" {
bucket = var.bucket
acl = var.acl
}
output "BUCKET_NAME" {
value = "${alicloud_oss_bucket.bucket-acl.bucket}.${alicloud_oss_bucket.bucket-acl.extranet_endpoint}"
}
variable "bucket" {
description = "OSS bucket name"
default = "vela-website"
type = string
}
variable "acl" {
description = "OSS bucket ACL, supported 'private', 'public-read', 'public-read-write'"
default = "private"
type = string
}
```

```shell
terraform init && terraform apply -f main.tf
```

We can get the Terraform state from the backend using `terraform state pull` and store it in the `state.json`. The Terraform state is a json string like the flowing:

```json
{
"version": 4,
"terraform_version": "1.1.9",
"serial": 4,
"lineage": "*******",
"outputs": {
"BUCKET_NAME": {
"value": "restore-example.oss-cn-beijing.aliyuncs.com",
"type": "string"
}
},
"resources": [
{
"mode": "managed",
"type": "alicloud_oss_bucket",
"name": "bucket-acl",
"provider": "provider[\"registry.terraform.io/hashicorp/alicloud\"]",
"instances": [
{
"schema_version": 0,
"attributes": {
"acl": "private",
"bucket": "restore-example",
"cors_rule": [],
"creation_date": "2022-05-25",
"extranet_endpoint": "oss-cn-beijing.aliyuncs.com",
"force_destroy": false,
"id": "restore-example",
"intranet_endpoint": "oss-cn-beijing-internal.aliyuncs.com",
"lifecycle_rule": [],
"location": "oss-cn-beijing",
"logging": [],
"logging_isenable": null,
"owner": "*******",
"policy": "",
"redundancy_type": "LRS",
"referer_config": [],
"server_side_encryption_rule": [],
"storage_class": "Standard",
"tags": {},
"transfer_acceleration": [],
"versioning": [],
"website": []
},
"sensitive_attributes": [],
"private": "*******=="
}
]
}
]
}
```

Now, we need to restore(import) the Terraform instance into the target terraform-controller.

First, we need to prepare the `configuration.yaml`:

```yaml
apiVersion: terraform.core.oam.dev/v1beta2
kind: Configuration
metadata:
name: alibaba-oss-bucket-hcl-restore-example
spec:
hcl: |
resource "alicloud_oss_bucket" "bucket-acl" {
bucket = var.bucket
acl = var.acl
}
output "BUCKET_NAME" {
value = "${alicloud_oss_bucket.bucket-acl.bucket}.${alicloud_oss_bucket.bucket-acl.extranet_endpoint}"
}
variable "bucket" {
description = "OSS bucket name"
default = "loheagn-terraform-controller-2"
type = string
}
variable "acl" {
description = "OSS bucket ACL, supported 'private', 'public-read', 'public-read-write'"
default = "private"
type = string
}
backend:
backendType: kubernetes
kubernetes:
secret_suffix: 'ali-oss'
namespace: 'default'

variable:
bucket: "restore-example"
acl: "private"

writeConnectionSecretToRef:
name: oss-conn
namespace: default

```

Second, we need to confirm that the environment variables set in terraform-controller are also set in the current execution environment. In this case, please make sure you have set `ALICLOUD_ACCESS_KEY` and `ALICLOUD_SECRET_KEY`.

Third, run the restore subcommand:

```shell
go run main.go restore --configuration examples/oss/configuration.yaml --state examples/oss/state.json
```

Finally, you can check the status of the configuration restored just now:

```shell
$ kubectl get configuration.terraform.core.oam.dev
NAME STATE AGE
alibaba-oss-bucket-hcl-restore-example Available 13m
```

And you can check the logs of the `terraform-executor` in the pod of the "terraform apply" job:

```shell
$ kubectl logs alibaba-oss-bucket-hcl-restore-example-apply--1-b29d6 terraform-executor
alicloud_oss_bucket.bucket-acl: Refreshing state... [id=restore-example]

No changes. Your infrastructure matches the configuration.

Terraform has compared your real infrastructure against your configuration
and found no differences, so no changes are needed.

Apply complete! Resources: 0 added, 0 changed, 0 destroyed.

Outputs:

BUCKET_NAME = "restore-example.oss-cn-beijing.aliyuncs.com"
```

You can see the "No changes.". This shows that we did not recreate cloud resources during the restore process.
